# Summary

A toolbox library that holds a useful collection of small unitilies written in Rust that make our life easier when writting Rust applications.

# Utilities provided:

 
## Versions

version parser from strings using the `semver.org` notations

Mininal Example:
```rust
   let version = "0.9.2-1e341234";

    let mut expected = Version::new(0, 9, 2);
    expected.pre = Prerelease::new("1e341234").unwrap();

    assert_eq!(semver_parse(version).unwrap(), expected);

```

# Tips for resolving Ubuntu 22.04/24.04 build issues:


1) Make sure you have the following system-level dependencies installed:
    ```
    sudo apt install pkg-config build-essential fontconfig libfontconfig1-dev
    ``` 

2) Verify that `pkg-config` can detect `libstdc++` properly:
    ```
    pkg-config --libs libstdc++
    ```

3) If `libstdc++` is not detected, add the symbolic link:
    ```
    sudo ln -s /usr/lib/gcc/x86_64-linux-gnu/11/libstdc++.so /usr/lib/libstdc++.so
    ```
